The Simple Art of Decoration
What does the term “mere decoration” bring to mind? For many, this can mean a quick, easy and cheap decor. An uncluttered, understated and natural can also define the style, simply decorated. In fact, all these attributes can be incorporated into a simple home decor that will appeal to almost anyone, especially those in the decoration of a budget but still want to create an attractive look for your home.
A very important point in this and any home decorating project is to spend some time to fatten the area. Delete everything you can physically hold the room, to have a fresh start and the ability to see what is really working. This includes accessories on the shelves, carpets and wall decor – everything must go, at least for now. The only furniture in the room should be large casegoods and upholstery that are too heavy to remove.
With simple decor idea that evokes the light, natural and easy to see, examine the floor and walls in this area. Need a fresh coat of neutral color paint on the walls and ceiling white “in the roof? What’s the word? If your budget can handle, consider light carpet, hardwood floors (natural or false), or tile, in light, natural finishes. If your budget does not allow costs, make sure the floors are sparkling clean. If you like the color in the decor of your home, then select a single color for the area in a tone that is not too bright.
Your next step is to examine carefully the seats in this room. Tissue is dated, dark, stained, or generally not pleasant to the eye? A quick, easy and inexpensive solution is to discover the world of slipcovers. There are many more options, styles and fabrics that now there are five or ten years ago. You can find slipcovers for sofas, armchairs, chairs, etc. They are made to accommodate special upholstery styles and look great. This is a wonderful way to create a different look in a room without spending much money.
If you choose this option, look for fabrics that suit your lifestyle as the first priority and then look for patterns and brighter colors. These options, along with light colored walls, it seeks to keep your bedroom cool, open and uncluttered.
Now that we have approached the ceiling, walls, floor and larger pieces in the room, it’s time to think of small items and accessories. Taking into account the objective is to look natural, uncluttered, simple and inexpensive. First, make an inventory of all the ‘stuff’ you have in your closets, kitchen cabinets and other storage areas. Looking for something you’ve never used before in this room, or perhaps never studied the possibility of using as an accent or accessory.
For example, you may have a unique and beautiful piece that has been hiding in a closet in China for years. Or, you can find the perfect accent on a carpet, put away long ago and not used. If you come across a piece that is hand-painted hand-woven natural material facts or, even better.
Bring every piece that you have identified in their project room and try to find a place to show what the piece off to its best advantage, with a minimum target of accessories. Do you want to avoid filling the walls with pictures just to fill space. Instead, try one or two pieces of his favorite, a picture or mirror you just “discovered” or an interesting combination of both.
By putting less on the walls and on display, each piece will gain more attention and dimension. For example, you might have put a antique accent table against a wall in this room. You posted a beautiful image above is oval, placed a hand painted pitcher on the table with an old piece of lace as an underlayment, and a natural finishing touch put some kind of organic, like the breath of the baby in the jar (in Instead of the usual silk flowers).The style used as an example may not match your decor taste, but the result is the same, simple, understated, inexpensive and natural.
If your closets and cupboards are “naked”, try shopping at a discount home furnishings store and select one or two songs you love to add to your decorating project. Remember that you make your selections to keep things simple and understated. By adding these pieces to your room, place in a way that will emphasize character and beauty (ie if you purchased a new accent table, not put things while around him and can not see table!)
Simple decorations should be just that – simple. By incorporating these suggestions into the design of your project, create a room that is uncluttered and understated, and have achieved this quickly, easily and inexpensively.
